Welcome to the 60th Kosher Cooking Carnival. Tonight, as I post this it is Rosh Chodesh Kislev. On the 25th of Kislev (December 1 this year) we will light the first candle of Chanukah. Chanukah conjures up the cold crisp air and the smell of potato latkes frying. HA! That's what the calendar says and the sign that greeted us at our local mall on Friday says "When it's cold outside the Rehovot Mall is the warmest there is!" The only thing is we were there because it's airconditioned and it was too hot to play outside in the playground so we took refuge in the mall. As we wait for winter to reach Rehovot here is this month's edition of the Kosher Cooking Carnival!

The Kosher Cooking Carnival KCC is a monthly blog carnival, a "round-up" of blog posts about all aspects of kosher food and cooking. It includes Jewish Law, customs, kosher restaurants, cookbooks and kosher recipes, too. Every month it's on another blog.

Irresistible Forces posted at Miriyummy, is much more than a recipe (although it's a great recipe for one of my personal favorite dishes) it's a post full of warmth and loving memories of Miriam's mom presented on her first yahrzeit

Why buy Teriyaki? is the question at Adventures in Mama-Land, and Jay3fer proceeds to give us "Super-easy teriyaki sauce, two ways, for any occasion. Why buy when you can make your own for pennies in less time than it takes to open a jar???" Go for it!

Keeping kosher means you never eat anything that's not kosher so when Cary Anderson of Eating Healthyproposes a Part Time Vegan Diet "just a few days a week, every week" it seems to go against our grain, but it's worth giving some thought.

"Menu Planning Monday isn't my own meme, but I've been participating for a while and there are not enough kosher blogs on there! I'd love to see more kosher home cooks adding themselves to the roster of weekly menu planners... mostly just as inspiration for my own family's meals!" Jay3fer shows you what it's all about at Adventures in Mama-Land: mpm
